It’s Just Justin

Born into Brothels

So it looks like I will be off to see Born into Brothels tonight, so see you guys later!

Cold

His heart for me is as cold as the rain drop on my face…

Back in CoMo

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.
I am back in Columbia and it feels so nice.

Had lots of fun in Chicago, though it did have its drama. Got back to Columbia to find my apartment full of drama. Turns out someone felt the need to essentially break into our apartment and havea party while we were all gone. Drink our alcohol, eat our food and more or less trash the place. What kind of shit is that?

Anyways, time for bed. Catch you later.

P.S.:

I know how we both like our names in other people’s journals, when it is positive at least hehe

Chicago Time

Ok, so next time I go to Chicago, definitely leaving out Andrew… He became pretty much a huge asshole as soon as he met Dave. It was obvious that he liked dave and yeah, it sure made things annoying. He constantly poked fun at me, belittled me constantly and just was a bitch. Made me pay for his dinner, bossed me around and all sorts of other bullshit things.

He told me I could park on this street, said it was fine… well he was way wrong. I was towed and it cost me a total of $210 to get it out of the auto pound and to pay off the ticket.

Enough with the negative, there is much more, perhaps I will write it later… haha.

We did have a great time, despite the towing, the ticketing and the “for real real” annoying “precious” things Andrew threw at us over and over. I am at Katie’s right now, she rocks my world, watching ABC7 News. The reporters remind me of those in Houston. They actually dress up in fashionable clothing instead of just a plain suit. The reporter right now is wearing a dark blue and grey thick-pin-stripe suit jacket with a white and purple oxford underneath and a really royal tie. He looks great!

Here are some pictures from the past day or so… Completely random haha. Oh oh! I bought another digital camera. It was a $200+ camera that I got for $50 and it rocks my socks off. It is only 3.2 megapixel but it is small and fun. These pictures were taken with it.

This is a really great hotel, Sofitel, amazing architecture in Chicago, both modern and historic

This is the Holy Church Cathedral in down town. It was so beautiful inside and out. I sat there a while for their evening service.

This was just one of our stops as we rode the train to Katie’s the other night.

This is a statue just outside of the Art Institute of Chicago’s Art Museum.

I had a blast at the art museum. Most of the artwork there was new to me though I did see a few of my favorites. I am such a sucker for Picaso though…

Well, I am going to get the rest of my stuff packed up and then Dave and I shall head outta here. I love this city but cannot wait to get back to Columbia so I can see a few people :)

Miss you all.

Be well!

The Night with Matt

So here is my night with Matt, I promised I would post about it :-)

I drove to Jefferson City to his apartment which was in itself exciting. He has always driven to me, this time, I drove to him.

When I got to his apartment I was greeted by a phone call from Geoff… not the greatest phone call and not sure why it even happened for as long as it did seeing as the voice message explained simply that I had a CD he would enjoy and that I would try to drop it off and that he have a fun, safe time, over Spring Break…

Then I was actually greeted by Matt. He walked me to his apartment which proved to be quite charming. The bedspread was made by the same people who made mine, it was the version I looked at before getting mine. He even has the same dust ruffel! He has a one bedroom apartment, studio style. The building was built in the 40’s but on limestone which, as Matt taught me, ceased to be used in the 1920’s… We contemplated on how this was to be and decided to stop thinking about it haha.

He had live orchids and other beautiful, tropical plants growing in his apartment. In addition he loves sail boats and just water in general. He spent four months living in a shack he built on the coast of Florida… He had some beautiful pictures of the home he created and also some fantastic stories.

We left his apartment to get a tour of Jefferson City. I was pretty much a Jefferson City virgin, he took that from me hehe. He has keys to the capital so next time he said we could go to the dome and sit, watch the stars and just enjoy the view. He drove me around downtown and told to me the story of each and every building around, or at least a good bit of them. We even went to the governer’s mansion, it seemed a little too dark… haha.

He lives in the apartment of a former republican official… I forgot the name but as the story goes, the apartment was only for when the fella would be in Jeff City… having sex with other guys! Scandelous!

He showed me around, gave me a tour of the strip and of Lincoln University. There he brought me to see a Smithsonian exibit of photography. The pictures were beautiful, some funny and others tragic.

We had dinner at a grand little greek restaurant and then headed to a winery to gaze at the stars. It was again picturesque.

Back to his place I was kind of nervous and kind of excited… Never had we ended up at one of our homes. I wanted to kiss him or hug him or something but I got too scared! I went to the bathroom to calm down haha. I got out and we made passes at it but neither of us made a move that was too obvious.

He walked me to my car and we said our goodbyes, again the awkwardness as we did not know what to do. So we said goodbye and I drove away…

Then I got home, planned to go to SoCo, nixed that, instead it was craziness and just AGH so let’s not bother with that.

so we are done now haha, love to you all!
